Chapter 589 A tall and strong figure is playing with a ball there (plus two updates for the cute and bright little sun)
"...Shilang Zhang, you have studied hard since you were a child and are good at both civil and military affairs. At the beginning, you were appointed as Lanzhou Recorder by your father and joined the army. When you were eighteen years old, you dared to go deep into the border areas and survey the topography..."
At this moment, Zhang Shuye, Wu, and Chen all looked blankly at the fourteen-year-old Gao Zhang in front of them.
Especially Wu and Chen, who were the most shocked. I wonder if they only briefly mentioned Zhang Shuye's character and experience.
It turned out that in just two months, Gao Zhang had actually explored Zhang Shuye's life experience in such detail, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.
No matter how many years and months that Zhang Shuye had performed, even when he was managing the lawn in Guanzhong, he did not give up on himself and was strict with himself.
Even if he doesn't understand the matter of forage, he still dares to show off his dignity and be like the local grass farmers who are not ashamed to ask questions.
Zhang Shuye looked straight at Gao Zhang, who was handsome and graceful.
Hearing that the wrong party was wrong about his great achievements is a treasure trove.
While Gao Zhang was drinking tea to soothe his throat, Chen Shilang couldn't help but ask.
"Nephew Guizhang, where on earth did I know so much about Shilang Zhang's past experiences?"
"Since the two elders have recommended the great talent of Minister Zhang to my nephew, how can he not take it seriously?"
"Since we attach great importance to it, we must first find out who Zhang Shilang is and who the elders are interested in."
"Only in this way, when my nephew recommends Zhang Shilang to the officials, he can be able to say something meaningful and not let the pearl be dusted."
Looking at Gao Zhang who gave a reasonable answer, Wu Zhizhong, who vaguely guessed something, secretly rolled his red eyes.
I have to admit that what he said is true and correct. No matter how close the relationship between Xiao Gao and the official family is, there must be something useful.
He did not disapprove of traitors like Cai Jing or Tong Guan, nor did he recommend people or ghosts to officials.
But the question is, does that guy really have legs that are so big that even that kind of department doesn’t open the door to him?
#####
He is so talented, knowledgeable, clever and scheming yet so sophisticated that he even feels ashamed.
Fortunately, fortunately, that boy was not like his father, and his path did not go astray.
Otherwise, no one can say for sure whether he will be a worthy minister in the world or a hero in troubled times.
Gao Zhang also introduced many situations in Suzhou to Zhang Shuye in detail, and even asked Na Fu'an to get a brochure.
Could it be that someone else, based on his work in Suzhou, had wrong thoughts and ideas about Suzhou’s short-term planning and long-term planning?
Gao Zhang made a new copy of that thing in the past two days and gave it to Zhang Shuye who was so grateful that he was crying.
I do not expect him to act completely according to his own will, but I do hope that after he goes to Suzhou, he will not destroy the good business environment he has created for Suzhou.
Zhang Shuye held the heavy booklet in his hands and was really filled with emotion.
Although he was wrong about the imperial examination for hundreds of years, he was the only child prodigy of the Song Dynasty who was named the number one scholar at the age of 11 and has been famous for a long time.
He has never had any dealings with him, but his many deeds are well known to his ears.
Earlier, I thought that Captain Gao would gain the reputation of being a ruthless man after seeing that his son could become the number one scholar.
Could it be that he then went to Jiangnan, and with just those Jiangnan soldiers, he put down in a very short time the rebellion between Zhu family and his son, which was full of misdeeds in Jiangnan and it is difficult to write down.
After that, Suzhou, which had just experienced the war, was governed in an orderly manner, all industries were excited, and even the taxation was higher than in previous years.
He vigorously promoted double-cropping rice there, and Suzhou's grain output shocked the entire Song Dynasty.
All these things have made Zhang Shuye change his mind a lot.
There is nothing wrong with him in his behavior, speech, demeanor, and appearance.
Especially if he praises his own achievements, it is very comfortable to hear and you can feel his sincere praise.
It really makes people want to become close friends with that beautiful young man who knows how to shut up.
After seeing Mingyue, Zhang Shuye was even more convinced that this person really lived up to his reputation as the number one child prodigy of the Song Dynasty.
In the past, notwithstanding Wu Zhizhong's reminder, Zhang Shuye, who was so light-hearted that he wished he could talk all night and fall asleep by the candlelight, reluctantly got up and said goodbye.
Gao Taoran personally sent these three people off. Just as he stood up, Gao Zhang suddenly thought of something important.
The master helped me so much and didn't let me step in during the whole process. In the end, I was very grateful to Zhang Shuye.
As the saying goes, if you throw in a plum, you will repay with a peach. Master, how could you not repay him a hundredfold for the pain you suffered?
Seeing Gao Zhang just begging to get up, he suddenly froze, making the three people who were also about to get up stunned.
At that moment, Gao Zhang raised his head and saluted Wu Zhi.
"Uncle Wu, I have been in the court for a long time and am not a civil servant. I think I know a lot about what happened in the court during those years."
"So, my nephew has something to ask you."
Wu Zhizhong looked at Gao Zhang. Although he didn't know what he wanted to ask for, he made a promise.
"I will ask if there is any secret that I know, and I will definitely tell you."
"In those years, did Prime Minister Cai have any right to compete with him in the court?"
"In other words, you can gain the trust of officials and be a very capable and responsible minister."
Chen Shilang's eyes lit up, and Dong subconsciously guessed.
"My dear nephew, what did I do when I heard about this? Do you want to find someone to replace Prime Minister Zhao and compete with Cai Jing?"
Gao Zhang glanced at Chen Shilang speechlessly, saying that I had a strong relationship with him, but I didn't want to establish an emperor.
"Although I don't know what my intentions are, you can tell me that if you talk about Ming Dong today, he is really someone Cai Jing is afraid of.
There is indeed such a person. This person has the same surname as Zhang Shuye. His surname is Zhang Shangying and his courtesy name is Tianjue. He is from Xinjin."
"In the first year of Chongning (1102), he worshiped Shangshu Youcheng and became Zuocheng. Because he and Cai Jing did not agree with each other on political affairs, the two often criticized each other."
"It caused chaos in the court and halted all affairs. The officials had no choice but to choose one of the two options: to demote Zhang Shangying out of Tokyo and to know Bozhou.
But Cai Jing was deeply jealous of him and tried to get him into the Yuanyou Party with the intention of exterminating him."
"Zhang Shangying's brother is benevolent to Emperor Shenzong. Although he is included in the Yuanyou Party, no one dares to touch him..."
Hearing this, Gao Zhang's eyes lit up.
"Thank you Uncle Wu for your guidance."
Wu Zhizhong, who was walking slowly forward and taking a leisurely stroll, couldn't help but curiously asked Gao Tao beside him.
"My dear nephew, I am asking about this matter. Why are you here?"
Just as Gao Zhang was about to speak, he heard a bang. After a while, another bang came.
Then I saw a tall and strong figure playing with a ball in the misty light not far away.
"..."
The second update is completed, keep working hard!
